Mary Polly

November 4, 1938 — March 14, 2021

Mary A Polly, 82 of Niles passed away on Sunday, March 14, 2021 in her home.

Mary was born on November 4, 1938 in Niles to the late Arthur and Virginia (Wechnerowski) Handley.

On August 25, 1956 at the First Presbyterian Church of Niles she married George Polly, Sr. who passed away on December 3, 2019.

She is also preceded in death by her brother, Louis Handley, sisters; Angeline Bowers and Alice Teeter and daughters-in-law; Jennifer Polly and Millie Polly.
